PTSA President's Message
Hello returning and new Dolphin families! My name is Karen Herrera Morales and I am your PTA President. I look forward to serving in this capacity. In order for the PTA to be successful, we need your help. If you care about our community's schools and students, you already belong in the PTA. Together we can create the best possible environment for our students, staff, and family. Together, we can be the reason someone feels welcomed, loved, heard, seen and supported. I invite you, we invite you, to join and PTA for your Child because we can do more together than apart. Here's to a great year!
